The Christian faith begins the moment a person believes in Jesus Christ as Savior, trusting Him alone for the free gift of eternal life (John 3:16; Acts 16:31; Eph 2:8-9). At that instant, God forgives sins, declares the believer righteous (Rom 3:28; 5:1), and grants eternal security (John 10:28). This starting point is not achieved by works, reform, or religious ritual, but by faith alone in Christ alone. The Christian life then continues by walking with God daily through faith, learning and applying His Word, and living in dependence on the Holy Spirit (2 Cor 5:7; Gal 5:16; 2 Tim 3:16-17). Growth in grace is a lifelong process as the believer renews the mind (Rom 12:2), pursues godliness (Tit 2:11-12), and serves others in love (Gal 5:13). Failures and setbacks do not undo salvation, but God disciplines and restores His children, calling them back to fellowship with Him (1 John 1:9; Heb 12:6). Thus, the Christian faith begins with a decisive act of faith in Christ for salvation and continues with a lifelong walk of faith, obedience, and spiritual growth until the believer is perfected in the presence of the Lord (Phil 1:6; 1 John 3:2).

AI Dependency Crisis + EV Infrastructure Failures: Tech Reality Check 2025When Two Infrastructure Promises Collide with RealityThe promise was simple: AI would augment human intelligence, and electric vehicles would transform transportation. The reality in 2025? Both are hitting infrastructure walls that expose uncomfortable truths about how technology actually scales.Sean Martin and Marco Ciappelli didn't plan to connect these dots in their latest Random and Unscripted weekly recap, but the conversation naturally evolved from AI dependency concerns to electric vehicle infrastructure challenges—revealing how both represent the same fundamental problem: mistaking technological capability for systemic readiness."The AI is telling us what success looks like and we're measuring against that, and who knows if it's right or wrong," Sean observed, describing what's become an AI dependency crisis in cybersecurity teams. Organizations aren't just using AI as a tool; they're letting it define their decision-making frameworks without maintaining the critical thinking skills to evaluate those frameworks.Marco connected this to their recent Black Cat analysis, describing the "paradox loop"—where teams lose both the ability to take independent action and think clearly because they're constantly feeding questions to AI, creating echo chambers of circular reasoning. "We're gonna be screwed," he said with characteristic directness. "We go back to something being magic again."This isn't academic hand-wringing. Both hosts developed their expertise when understanding fundamental technology was mandatory—when you had to grasp cables, connections, and core systems to make anything work. Their concern is for teams that might never develop that foundational knowledge, mistaking AI convenience for actual competence.The electric vehicle discussion, triggered by Marco's conversation with Swedish consultant Matt Larson, revealed parallel infrastructure failures. "Upgrading to electric vehicles isn't like updating software," Sean noted, recalling his own experience renting an EV and losing an hour to charging—"That's not how you're gonna sell it."Larson's suggestion of an "Apollo Program" for EV infrastructure acknowledges what the industry often ignores: some technological transitions require massive, coordinated investment beyond individual company capabilities. The cars work; the surrounding ecosystem barely exists. Sound familiar to anyone implementing AI without considering organizational infrastructure?From his Object First webinar on backup systems, Sean extracted a deceptively simple insight: immutability matters precisely because bad actors specifically target backups to enable ransomware success. "You might think you're safe and resilient until something happens and you realize you're not."Marco's philosophical take—comparing immutable backups to never stepping in the same river twice—highlights why both cybersecurity and infrastructure transitions demand unchanging foundations even as everything else evolves rapidly.The episode's most significant development was their expanded event coverage announcement. Moving beyond traditional cybersecurity conferences to cover IBC Amsterdam (broadcasting technology since 1967), automotive security events, gaming conferences, and virtual reality gatherings represents recognition that infrastructure challenges cross every industry."That's where things really get interesting," Sean noted about broader tech events. When cybersecurity professionals only discuss security in isolation, they miss how infrastructure problems manifest across music production, autonomous vehicles, live streaming, and emerging technologies.Both AI dependency and EV infrastructure failures share the same root cause: assuming technological capability automatically translates to systemic implementation. The gap between "this works in a lab" and "this works in reality" represents the most critical challenge facing technology leaders in 2025.Their call to action extends beyond cybersecurity: if you know about events that address infrastructure challenges at the intersection of technology and society, reach out. The "usual suspects" of security conferences aren't where these broader infrastructure conversations are happening.What infrastructure gaps are you seeing between technology promises and implementation reality?

Frankie Val welcomes guest J Gulinello for a sharp, candid conversation on health, media narratives, and government failure. They dig into the shocking statistics of chronic illness in America, the pharmaceutical industry's stranglehold, and the lack of nutritional education in medical schools. With biting humor, they take on the media's “experts,” expose how industries profit from sickness, and reflect on COVID-era lies that cracked open public trust. Alongside the heavy analysis are lighter moments, from fitness challenges to personal stories, plus listener call-ins that highlight how trauma, poor parenting, and overmedication shape society. It's a mix of unfiltered critique and real-world perspective that challenges the status quo while keeping the conversation raw and human.
TALK TO ME, TEXT ITHave you ever wondered what could trap someone inside a high-tech vehicle? The tragic case of Michael Sheehan, who perished in his Tesla Cybertruck after a crash, raises alarming questions about vehicle safety design. According to a wrongful death lawsuit, the Cybertruck's electrically operated doors became inoperable after power loss, with manual release latches allegedly too difficult to locate in an emergency. This shocking revelation forces us to question whether automotive innovation sometimes sacrifices essential safety features for aesthetic appeal.Switching gears to career advice, we explore three seemingly innocent phrases that could instantly disqualify you during job interviews. Mentioning your entrepreneurial ambitions signals to employers that you're already planning your exit strategy. Surprisingly, emphasizing "work-life balance" might suggest misaligned priorities to potential employers searching for passionate, committed candidates. Even honestly disclosing a previous layoff could work against you, as executives often assume top performers are reassigned rather than let go during downsizing. These counterintuitive insights might just save your next job opportunity.For movie buffs, we discuss the critical reception of "The Roses," a remake of the 1989 dark comedy starring Michael Douglas and Kathleen Turner. Despite featuring talents like Benedict Cumberbatch and Olivia Colman, critics are panning it as "weak and witless." But as seasoned viewers know, critical consensus doesn't always align with audience enjoyment. This discussion raises our question of the day: What highly acclaimed, universally praised film left you thoroughly unimpressed?

This episode focuses on the critical importance of having a backup plan, not just for technical redundancies but especially for situations involving human error, which are highly prevalent in one's career. The core argument hinges on understanding risk and reward curves, highlighting the disproportionate impact of failures compared to incremental successes.Understanding Risk and Reward Curves:Successes are often incremental. Delivering a project on time typically leads to opportunities for more projects, good performance reviews, and modest pay increases (e.g., 5-7%). These are positive, but linear or slightly bumpy gains.Failures, especially uncaught ones, have a much longer negative tail. The potential for loss from a significant mistake or a disastrous project significantly outweighs the potential for gain from a success.A bad performance review, for example, can affect future reviews, decrease promotion likelihood, and follow you for a much longer period than a good one.Uncaught failures can place individuals in a pool for budget cuts or layoffs, leading to catastrophic curves where negative effects compound much faster, resembling a logarithmic function. One or two significant negative events could wipe out all accumulated incremental gains.The Criticality of Backup Plans:Backup plans are essential to avoid these catastrophic negative curves and major "wipeout scenarios".This preparedness applies to project failures, personal career contingencies (e.g., getting laid off), and even events beyond direct control.It's crucial to prepare for theoretically possible catastrophic events, not just those that have historically occurred. Even "Black Swan" events or things you're not prepared for can cause major issues.Thinking like this (e.g., similar to life insurance, which you only need once if at all) encourages hedging efforts with basic backup plans, such as redundancy.Benefits of Preparedness:The more you prepare for contingencies, the more likely you can deal with the majority of failures, preventing the catastrophic curve.Having backup plans can create a "flywheel effect", where your ability to respond to negative events actually increases the speed of stacking up further positive outcomes.Being proactive in your career (e.g., interviewing even when you're happy in your current role) builds resiliency.Actionable Advice:Focus on what could go wrong: Try to figure out how things could fail and what catastrophic events are possible, even if they haven't happened yet.Identify vulnerabilities: Locate areas where a catastrophe could lead to a steep drop-off in your career trajectory.Implement a basic backup plan: The recommendation is to put just one in place this week for something that could catastrophically impact your career. This provides a sense of relief and ensures readiness if needed. Taking this first step is likely to encourage creating more backup plans for professional situations.

Have you ever wondered how one writer could change French literature and politics at the same time? That's the story we tell in Émile Zola: The Life, Legacy, and Scandal of France's Most Influential Writer. In this episode of the Join Us in France Travel Podcast, host Annie Sargent sits down with Elyse Rivin to explore the extraordinary life of Émile Zola. Zola was not just a novelist. He was a social critic, a scandal-maker, and a public voice for justice. His Rougon-Macquart series, including the famous novel Germinal, revealed the lives of miners, shopkeepers, and workers in 19th-century France. His friendship with Paul Cézanne shaped his early years. His relationship with Jeanne Rozerot brought private scandal. And his article J'Accuse made him a hero during the Dreyfus Affair, even though it forced him into exile in England. Annie and Elyse take you through the highlights of an Émile Zola biography in plain language. You'll learn about his role in shaping the Naturalist movement, his courage to stand up against injustice, and why he rests today in the Panthéon in Paris alongside France's greatest figures. This episode isn't just about books. It's about history, politics, scandal, and courage. It's about how one man's words still echo in France today. If you're curious about French literature, Paris history, or the Dreyfus Affair, this episode is for you. You'll walk away with stories you can share and a deeper understanding of France's cultural heritage.

In this episode of Cybersecurity Today, host Jim Love covers a range of recent cybersecurity incidents. A major privacy failure has hit Elon Musk's Grok chatbot, exposing over 370,000 private conversations with sensitive information.

Picture this: You've just had the most beautiful vision for your afternoon. Snacks are prepped, your nervous system is regulated, and you're ready to welcome your kids home with the kind of calm connection that makes parenting books weep with joy. Then reality shows up. Your 5-year-old melts down about the "wrong" crackers, your teenager rolls their eyes so hard they practically fall out, and suddenly you're yelling about homework like you're auditioning for a reality show you never wanted to be on.Welcome to what I like to call "productive failure" and it's about to become your new best friend.What We're Diving Into Today:The Dictionary Definition That Will Blow Your Mind – Turns out failure is way more neutral than we thought (spoiler: it's just "omission of expected action" – how boring is that?!)Why We're Actually Avoiding the Wrong Thing – Plot twist: We're not afraid of failure itself, we're afraid of our thoughts ABOUT failureThe Baby Walking Wisdom – Those adorable falls aren't obstacles, they're literally building the muscles needed to walk (mind = blown)Productive vs. Unproductive Failure – There's a difference between failing while putting yourself out there and failing by hiding in your comfort zoneThe Confidence Connection – Real confidence isn't about never failing, it's about getting really good at failing forwardWhat if your biggest parenting "disasters" are actually your success strategy in disguise? What if every time you lose your cool, forget to stay connected, or watch your beautiful bedtime routine implode, you're actually collecting the exact data you need to become the parent you want to be?Your Mission (Should You Choose to Accept It): Instead of avoiding failure, start collecting it like you're going for some kind of awesome parenting award. Every time something doesn't go according to plan, ask yourself: "What's the wisdom here? What's this teaching me about myself, my triggers, my capacity?"Your kids don't need you to be perfect. They need you to be human, to model resilience, and to show them that falling down and getting back up is literally how we grow. If this episode helped you see failure in a new light, would you mind leaving a review? It helps other parents find these conversations, and honestly, it makes my day when I get to read how this stuff is landing for you.Now go connect with your kids, and don't forget to connect with yourself too.Next Steps: Leave a review if you've been enjoying the CMP Podcast My Book: https://cmp.works/1xs My IG: https://cmp.works/ista

The Hidden Lightness with Jimmy Hinton – Authorities revealed that Singh was in the country illegally and should not have been behind the wheel of a semi-truck.

In Episode 229 of _The Battle of Britain_, listeners dive into the intense, attritional final phase of the aerial campaign as the Luftwaffe shifts focus to dismantle RAF Fighter Command's defenses with precision raids on key airfields.

In this episode of Oldest Stories, we explore the later reign of Tiglath-Pileser III, one of the most transformative kings of the Neo-Assyrian Empire. By the late 8th century BCE, Assyria's power seemed unstoppable, yet beneath the victories lay structural weaknesses.We examine four key failures that reveal how the empire actually worked:The eastern provincial revolts of 737 BCE, exposing the limits of Assyria's new provincial system.The failed Assyrian siege of Tushpa, capital of Urartu, and what it taught about siege warfare and logistics.The Babylonian crisis of the 730s, where Chaldeans, Arameans, and internal rebellions undermined Assyria's southern policy.The succession struggle following Tiglath-Pileser's death, setting the stage for Shalmaneser V and the rise of Sargon II.Along the way we look at Assyrian reforms, deportation policies, eunuch officials, Assyrian-Babylonian relations, and Urartian resistance. We also discuss how propaganda, letters, and oracles shaped royal decisions, and why even the greatest reforming king of Assyria faced real limits to his power.If you are interested in Ancient Mesopotamia, Assyrian history, Babylon, Urartu, Neo-Assyrian military reforms, biblical history, or the geopolitics of the ancient Near East, this episode will give you an in-depth, historically grounded perspective.I am also doing daily history facts again, at least until I run out of time again.

Send us a textNothing screams “lifelong dream” like failing your IFT on day one. That's right—72 cones showed up to the hardest pipeline in the world and tripped over the mile-and-a-half run like it was a banana peel. The Ones Ready crew (Peaches, Aaron, and Trent) put on their disappointed dad faces and rip into the excuses, bad prep, and pure clownery. From BMT “downtime” myths to pipeline “optimizations” that may or may not save the Air Force from itself, this is a no-filter roast of what's broken, what's fixable, and why mediocrity isn't an option. Strap in: it's equal parts therapy session, rant, and savage life advice.
